The cost of living is on the rise. Fuck. Drinking and partying is unbelievably expensive. Good thing I got myself a job cause this July is turning out to be MAD BAD. There’s some massive party almost every weekend and I’ve also had to entertain a bunch of grown men from the previous generation; which I must say is a completely different trip.

The Clife has also taken a massive U-turn and is going waaay good. Things are kinda perfect at the moment (and I hope I don’t jinx it with this post). Work is good, challenging and hectic. Competent staff are so hard to find these days and even the few competent ones seem to be leaving the country. I recently received word of another such competent intelligent Sri Lankan is going to leave for the Land of The Free. Damned shame. Another loss to this country.

I seem to have gone from a lazy, TV watching guy with a schedule that’s envied by most, to a guy who’s working all the time. My current schedule includes coming to work every morning for my 9-5, then home to work on some of the freelance projects. Sleep at 1am. There’s some correspondence in the middle of the night with the parent company of my 9-5, since they are based in Mountain View, CA aka Silicon Valley.

I met a girl who’s almost perfect. Just that she’s a little older and she’s doesn’t live in LK. Another one of those who are fed up with the state of affairs and decided to take her talents to another country. Damn shame. What to do? Such is life. But this life is good, great and happening.
